I don't believe they're actually installed. It was more of a test they were running

There's a stupid cheap cruise rate right now on a solo rate for the Icon of the Seas group cruise June 29. It's for an inside gty cabin for one person (can only be one person) for $1777 with taxes and fees. You'd need to book it and pay in full immediately, so contact your MEI agent before it disappears! I suspect it will be gone very, very soon.

A for effort!

We're going to need more details to assist.

Cruising with a baby on Allure of the Seas
Matt replied to cruisy's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Doesn't matter, just personal preference and how your room is configured. https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2020/04/07/introduction-bringing-toddlers-royal-caribbean-cruise- 3 replies

No Upper class suites on Voyager OTS
Matt replied to Jaedensou's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Is it for a holiday cruise? It does seem strange there's nothing higher than a Junior Suite -
I was able to book some items for my Utopia cruise last night on the website on my PC

Royal Caribbean Partners With Brightline
Matt replied to WAAAYTOOO's topic in Royal Caribbean News and Rumors
ROYAL15 is the code, so give it a try No, just to the airport. Take Lyft or Uber. I do this every time. It's a very inexpensive ride -
Thanks, that's helpful feedback!

I appreciate the feedback. I don't have any plans to change it, but I am curious on an average day, how do you know to visit the site? Meaning, do you just think "Let me go to RCB and see if there are any new posts" or do you usually get notified of new posts from social media, Google, etc? Honestly, this doesn't matter. Most of the traffic is cached by the CDN we use, so it's far more efficient than you might think.

Removed from ship after food poisoning. No refund.
Matt replied to RJM's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Well said. I've certainly been guilty of assuming something is occurring, only to realize later that's not the case at all. Moreover, it's even easier to "Monday morning quarterback" something after the fact. I'm sure it was not pleasant on Allure yesterday, and even if you weren't sick, frustrating not to be able to disembark at CocoCay as scheduled. But unfortunately life happens, and being flexible and trying to make the best of the experience is key. When I had Covid on Serenade of the Seas in 2022, I was miserable in my cabin, but I caught up on TV shows and YouTube content on my phone and it helped distract me a bit. -
It's not new, been that way for many years now. Royal used to pre-stock the mini bar but now it's reversed. Unless you request it, they keep the mini bar empty.

If they remind you to take the survey, or tell you it's important, I think that's fine and doesn't qualify for that question. But if they give you a guilt trip and/or talk about how only a 5 star rating is acceptable, then that is indeed what this question is for.

Proceed!

Yes Yes https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2024/05/20/royal-caribbean-express-boarding-review

This is a very accurate statement. It's understandable to ask this sort of question, but sea conditions really do vary considerably. You'll want to be prepared with meds to handle it, should it occur.
